Fred Done founder of BetFred, the UK’s largest independent bookmaker has been appointed Chairman of online finance and banking start-up CardOne.

CardOne allows for easy access to funds for online customers and small businesses. The Chester based company currently handles currently £600 million customer transactions from 20,000 online banking accounts.

Commenting on his appointment as Chairman, Done stated

“Having invested in CardOne banking from January 2009, I have been impressed not only with the pace of expansion but also how the management team led by Managing Director Adam Rigler has built a reputation to be proud of.

“We offer common sense banking managed by ethical people which has given me the appetite to challenge the establishment once again.

“For me it is always about people. Life is stressful enough without facing the big banks if all you need is a flexible way of having a current account, a MasterCard debit card, direct debits, faster payments, free SMS alerts and to have access to mobile and internet banking. CardOne banking is definitely on track to make the big boys think more about putting the customer, whoever they are, first.”

Adam Rigler CardOne Managing Director said: “We are all delighted to have Fred on board as Chairman. Fred is a visionary, his business acumen, advice and personal support has been invaluable from day one. We have exciting growth ambitions going forward and Fred is no stranger to going up against the more established brands currently on the high street.”
